Micah here delivers a statement of hope. Although he has just delivered the statement of judgment and has decreed the many sins of Israel, he now extends the message with a promise of restoration and hope for Israel. We have been evil, and we will suffer the consequences. We are scattered to the four corners of the known earth, but there is coming a day when the Lord will plead our cause and we will be brought back to our homeland and be restored! Whatever you are facing today, know that restoration will come if you do not lose hope. God’s favor is not gone forever if you repent from sin and believe. His anger is temporary, His love is eternal. Have hope!
